  • Letter from the Desk of David Challinor August 2001 About 1,000
    Letter From the Desk of David Challinor August 2001 About 1,000 miles west of the mid-Atlantic Ridge at latitude 32°20' north (roughly Charleston, SC), lies a small, isolated archipelago some 600 miles off the US coast. Bermuda is the only portion of a large, relatively shallow area or bank that reaches the surface. This bank intrudes into the much deeper Northwestern Atlantic Basin, an oceanic depression averaging some 6,000 m deep. A few kilometers off Bermuda's south shore, the depth of the ocean slopes precipitously to several hundred meters. Bermuda's geographic isolation has caused many endemic plants to evolve independently from their close relatives on the US mainland. This month's letter will continue the theme of last month's about Iceland and will illustrate the joys and rewards of longevity that enable us to witness what appears to be the beginnings of landscape changes. In the case of Bermuda, I have watched for more than 40 years a scientist trying to encourage an endemic tree's resistance to an introduced pathogen. My first Bermuda visit was in the spring of 1931. At that time the archipelago was covered with Bermuda cedar ( Juniperus bermudiana ). This endemic species was extraordinarily well adapted to the limestone soil and sank its roots deep into crevices of the atoll's coral rock foundation. The juniper's relatively low height, (it grows only 50' high in sheltered locations), protected it from "blow down," a frequent risk to trees in this hurricane-prone area. Juniper regenerated easily and its wood was used in construction, furniture, and for centuries in local boat building.

Wedge-tailed Shearwater Ardenna pacifica fallout patterns inform targeted management. Marine Ornithology 48: 245–254. Seabird fledglings are often attracted to artificial, bright lights, leading to their grounding. This phenomenon is termed “fallout” and is associated with an increased risk of mortality from land-based threats. This study evaluated temporal trends and spatial factors, such as fallout clustering near lights and proximity to colonies, to inform targeted management actions. Standardized surveys were conducted from 2002 to 2010 for Wedge-tailed Shearwater Ardenna pacifica (WTSH) fallout on the island of O‘ahu, Hawai‘i, USA. First, yearly fallout counts along the transect showed a two-year cycle and identified 25 November as the date with the highest fallout across years. Second, artificial lights and utility lines were present in 94% and 83% of fallout locations, leading to significantly higher fallout rates at these locations compared to random points along the transect. Third, fallout decreased significantly as the distance from the colonies increased and was negligible farther than 5 km from the nearest colony.

  • BARC SUBMISSION Cory's Shearwater Calonectris Borealis
    BARC SUBMISSION Cory’s Shearwater Calonectris borealis – Bremer Canyon ‘hotspot’, Western Australia, 5th January 2020 Machi Yoshida (prepared by Daniel Mantle & Plaxy Barratt) Submission note: we believe this sighting constitutes the 3rd time that one or more Cory’s Shearwater have been sighted in Australia (after a bird seen off Bremer Bay on the 19th January 2019 and up to four birds off Denmark, Western Australia six days prior to this record). Taxonomic notes: Cory’s Shearwater Calonectris borealis is a relatively recent split from Scopoli’s Shearwater Calonectris diomedea as accepted by the IOC (version 9.2; following Robb & Mullarney 2008, Howell 2012, and Sangster et al. 2012) and the HBW-Birdlife list of birds (version 3.0). However, other taxonomies such as Clements (2019) still consider these two taxa as subspecies (C. d. borealis and C. d. diomedea, respectively). All three of these major taxonomies accept Cape Verde Shearwater Calonectris edwardsii as a distinct species. Circumstances of sighting: a single Cory’s Shearwater was observed and photographed by Machi Yoshida at the Orca ‘hotspot’ at the head of the Bremer Canyon (near the shelf edge), Western Australia on the 5th January, 2020. This sighting was considerably more distant than the birds seen off Denmark six days previously by Machi and Billy Thom. Description (from photo): • A large shearwater with a thick, yellow bill, pale whitish underparts and dull beige to brown upperparts. • The yellow bill is notably robust, bright yellow, and with a darker tip (the fine detail is not apparent, but presumed to be a dark subterminal band rather than full dark tip).

  • Seabirds in Southeastern Hawaiian Waters
    WESTERN BIRDS Volume 30, Number 1, 1999 SEABIRDS IN SOUTHEASTERN HAWAIIAN WATERS LARRY B. SPEAR and DAVID G. AINLEY, H. T. Harvey & Associates,P.O. Box 1180, Alviso, California 95002 PETER PYLE, Point Reyes Bird Observatory,4990 Shoreline Highway, Stinson Beach, California 94970 Waters within 200 nautical miles (370 km) of North America and the Hawaiian Archipelago(the exclusiveeconomic zone) are consideredas withinNorth Americanboundaries by birdrecords committees (e.g., Erickson and Terrill 1996). Seabirdswithin 370 km of the southern Hawaiian Islands (hereafterreferred to as Hawaiian waters)were studiedintensively by the PacificOcean BiologicalSurvey Program (POBSP) during 15 monthsin 1964 and 1965 (King 1970). Theseresearchers replicated a tracklineeach month and providedconsiderable information on the seasonaloccurrence and distributionof seabirds in these waters. The data were primarily qualitative,however, because the POBSP surveyswere not basedon a strip of defined width nor were raw counts corrected for bird movement relative to that of the ship(see Analyses). As a result,estimation of density(birds per unit area) was not possible. From 1984 to 1991, using a more rigoroussurvey protocol, we re- surveyedseabirds in the southeasternpart of the region (Figure1). In this paper we providenew informationon the occurrence,distribution, effect of oceanographicfactors, and behaviorof seabirdsin southeasternHawai- ian waters, includingdensity estimatesof abundant species. We also document the occurrenceof six speciesunrecorded or unconfirmed in thesewaters, the ParasiticJaeger (Stercorarius parasiticus), South Polar Skua (Catharacta maccormicki), Tahiti Petrel (Pterodroma rostrata), Herald Petrel (P. heraldica), Stejneger's Petrel (P.

  • DIET and ASPECTS of FAIRY PRIONS BREEDING at SOUTH GEORGIA by P.A
    DIET AND ASPECTS OF FAIRY PRIONS BREEDING AT SOUTH GEORGIA By P.A. PRINCE AND P.G. COPESTAKE ABSTRACT A subantarctic population of the Fairy Prion (Pachyprzla turtur) was studied at South Georgia in 1982-83. Full measurements of breeding birds are given, together with details of breeding habitat, the timing of the main breeding cycle events, and chick growth (weight and wing, culmen and tarsus length). Regurgitated food samples showed the diet to be mainly Crustacea (96% by weight), fish and squid comprising the rest. Of crustaceans, Antarctic krill made up 38% of items and 80% by weight. Copepods (four species, mostly Rhincalanus gigas) made up 39% of items but only 4% by weight; amphipods [three species, principally Themisto gaudichaudii made up 22% of items and 16% by weight. Diet and frequency of chick feeding are compared with those of Antarctic Prions and Blue Petrels at the same site; Fairy Prions are essentially intermediate. INTRODUCTION The Fairy Prion (Pachyptila turtur) is one of six members of a genus confined to the temperate and subantarctic regions of the Southern Hemisphere. With the Fulmar Prion (P. crassirostris), it forms the subgenus Pseudoprion. Its main area of breeding distribution is between the Antarctic Polar Front and the Subtropical Convergence. It is widespread in the New Zealand region, from the north of the North Island south to the Antipodes Islands and Macquarie Island, where only about 40 pairs survive (Brothers 1984). Although widespread in the Indian Ocean at the Prince Edward, Crozet and Kerguelen Islands, in the South Atlantic Ocean it is known to breed only on Beauchene Island (Falkland Islands) (Strange 1968, Smith & Prince 1985) and South Georgia (Prince & Croxall 1983).

  • The Taxonomy of the Procellariiformes Has Been Proposed from Various Approaches
    山 階 鳥 研 報(J. Yamashina Inst. Ornithol.),22:114-23,1990 Genetic Divergence and Relationships in Fifteen Species of Procellariiformes Nagahisa Kuroda*, Ryozo Kakizawa* and Masayoshi Watada** Abstract The genetic analysis of 23 protein loci in 15 species of Procellariiformes was made The genetic distancesbetween the specieswas calculatedand a dendrogram was formulated of the group. The separation of Hydrobatidae from all other taxa including Diomedeidae agrees with other precedent works. The resultsof the present study support the basic Procellariidclassification system. However, two points stillneed further study. The firstpoint is that Fulmarus diverged earlier from the Procellariidsthan did the Diomedeidae. The second point is the position of Puffinuspacificus which appears more closely related to the Pterodroma petrels than to other Puffinus species. These points are discussed. Introduction The taxonomy of the Procellariiformes has been proposed from various approaches. The earliest study by Forbes (1882) was made by appendicular myology. Godman (1906) and Loomis (1918) studied this group from a morphological point of view. The taxonomy of the Procellariiformes by functional osteology and appendicular myology was studied by Kuroda (1954, 1983) and Klemm (1969), The results of the various studies agreed in proposing four families of Procellariiformes: Diomedeidae, Procellariidae, Hydrobatidae, and Pelecanoididae. They also pointed out that the Procellariidae was a heterogenous group among them. Timmermann (1958) found the parallel evolution of mallophaga and their hosts in Procellariiformes. Recently, electrophoretical studies have been made on the Procellariiformes. Harper (1978) found different patterns of the electromorph among the families. Bar- rowclough et al. (1981) studied genetic differentiation among 12 species of Procellari- iformes at 16 loci, and discussed the genetic distances among the taxa but with no consideration of their phylogenetic relationships.
